Re: Godzilla's Roar Having a Different Pitch in ToM

It was a distant aftereffect of a dare by Rodan and Anguirus. They talked him into inhaling as much helium as he could. He regrets listening to them to this day. For weeks all anybody called him was "Squeaker" or "Mousezilla".

I know the mechagodzilla fake had a higher/squeakier roar. Other than that, i don't think so.

Most -if not all- of the Showa films had a similar ceremony. Toshiro Mifune was part of the one for the original GODZILLA!

i have classic media's 2002 release of tomg and lets just say the print is TERRIBLE. It has a lot of grain/print damage and has an ugly brown/yellow color to it. Still not as bad as alpha videos 2001 dvd release of godzilla vs. megalon (which is the worst DVD print ever) but im thinking of getting classic medias 2008 re-release of terror of mechagodzilla heard the print is much better.

What made you not get in the first place? It's been out for years, and it's dirt cheap.

You are definitely thinking of his pain roar. I actually think his normal roar got a tad lower.

Maybe Minilla was some mutation inside a Kamacarus' ootheca and that's why they attacked..... Maybe Minilla ISN'T the Son of Godzilla! He's some weird Kamacari that Godzilla felt bad for!

..... Nope, the other guys would never accept that..........




I don't know even know what a he-ba is......
